Kaapse Klopse South Africa 2011 [00:25]
Although the traditional black and white minstrel shows are thought of as un-PC by most, minstrels come out in force at the Kaapse Klopse of Cape Town Minstrels Carnival, though in reverse! In 1848 as a protest against their former masters, ex-slaves whited up their faces and sung songs parodying the behaviour of important local figures and the tradition has been passed down through families ever since. Today around 46000 white faced minstrels don their brightly coloured garb and musical instruments and parade through the streets of Cape Town on New Years Day (traditionally the slaves only day off.), although for 2011 there seems to be an ongoing political argument that the Festival is to occur on the 3rd of January as the 2nd is the day of the sabbath. Many important local acts now become part of the minstrel shows and historically this was a way for dark skinned South Africans to become involved in the music industry. Originally, on 19th June , 1890 Orpheus Myron McAdoo's Virginia Jubilee Singers from the city of Hampton arrived to Cape Town, it was the first black minstrels to perform and tour South Africa. The reception held in there honor was overwhelming and the blacks of the city were giving pleasing smiles, there was aura of happiness around and air was filled with black people's joy. This event became a legend as it started an historic event, a festival called Kaapse Klopse which has its meaning as clubs in Cape Dutch, or as in English, it is said as troupes ...

South Africa Stoke Squad - Day One: Crocodile Ribs & Llandudno Dr [03:25]
Our first day in South Africa started with eating crocodile ribs followed by a freeride session at Llandudno Dr Unfortunately we weren't able to find a solid free Internet connection that would suffice to upload a HD video while we were in South Africa. So so basically everything will be posted with a month of delay... Anyway. This is a short video from Ben and my first day in South Africa. Ben was born in South Africa and lived there until he came to Switzerland last May. On our first day we went freeriding at Llandudno Dr, at the bottom of which there is one of Cape Town's most popular surf spots. One thing I noticed right away was the remarkably slick pavement. It almost felt like back home it's double as hard to push your board out and standup slide. Llandudno Dr is also where Ben and Matt Arderne started longboarding ten years ago. Ben said back then it was too scary to skate the entire hill and some of the sections they had to buttboard. "It's crazy how our skating has progressed so much...now we're just freeriding all the way down doing standup slides all over the place"

My Year, My Time, My 2o1o [06:36]
This is a video I put together showing some of things I've done & places I've been this past year & some of the pictures & video's I've randomly taken along the way! I feel that this has been my year, despite the rubbish start it had; My mum's old cat passed away & I lost my job - though I think that one was actually a blessing as my year just got a whole lot better after that! I've had so many wonderful experiences through this year, I've had a lot of "firsts" as well. I always had a feeling that 2o1o would be my year & it sure has! The people in it are my family & friends plus some of the Horses at the Yard I ride at. The places in the video are: Heysham, Morecambe, Lancaster, Jersey, London, South Africa & Birmingham. The Music is called "Passing By" & is from the Movie "Elizabethtown" For the full disclaimer please see the end of the video. : ) I hope you enjoy watching it. Lo x
